Australian EB Games ad "Man's Guide to Trading" is horribly sexist

As always, I'm horribly busy and don't have much time to comment in-depth on this, but it came to my attention today on Twitter that EB Games here in Australia is now showing this ad in its stores. Needless to say, I'm disguisted, outraged, etc., but what I'm must curious about is what you all think! Has there been a similar campaign in the United States or elsewhere? 

Apparently there will be a woman's guide coming as well, but I don't expect it to be any better. Most likely it will show a desperate wife trading in her husband's games behind his back so she can snag the latest iteration of Cooking Mama.

Tone – a whole new level has been added to team talks and conversations, with the new tone system, which allows you to specify the way you want to say things – be as cool as a cucumber by saying things calmly or throw tea cups around by saying things with passion. There are 6 different tones to choose from with specific comments per tone.
Intelligent Interface – a new adaptive layout system, which means the higher your screen resolution, the more info is easily at your fingertips. The new interface also contains new filters, customisable columns, a new tactics screen, and lots of new overview screens.
